Meeting OF the Board OF Education-Site
for tho Colored a.. Ium.
AUSTIN, Tex, May 3.-The Board of
Education had meeting and decided
that each member of the Legislature
should be allowed to send one pupil to
the Sam Houston Institute, subject to
competitive examination. The Board of
Education shall send three and the Su-
perintendent of Education two from the
state at large. The age LOT girls was
reduced to sixteen years.
The Governor has issued forty-six
pardons, out of 400 applicants, about
forty of which were boys, and nearly all
were signed by the district judge and at
torney and a majority of the
jury. He has granted twenty
re missions and twelve reservations to
citizenship.
The board appointed to select site
for the Colored Deaf and DumbIand Blind
Asylum had meeting with the Governor.
They decided to advertise for bids and
site for the building. Not more than
$4,000 will be devoted to the purchase
of the ground.
Professor Cooper has received an invi-
tat1on to deliver the annual lecture for
the Texas Wesleyan College at Fort
Worth on May 80. The invitation could
not be accepted, because the Sam Hous-
ton Normal Institute has i commence
ment exercises at that time, and his official
connection with that institu ton REQUIRES
him to be present.

A Verdict of Not Guilty in the Jones County
Murder Case.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
ANsoN, Tex, April 30.-This morning
at O'Clock the jury in the Joseph S. Boyd
murder trial, after being out about thirty
minutes, returned a verdict of not guilty.
This has been the most exciting trial ever
had in Jones county, as all the parties
connected with it are citizens of Jones
friends 1t will be remembered by the
readers of TIE GAZETTE that Joseph
Boyd shot and killed Jim Sullivan on the
road between Abilene and the Clear Fork
of the Brazos river on the 9th
of last August, about eight miles
north Of Abilene, just inside the Jones
county line. Over 100 witnesses were
brought from Abilene, Waco, San Angelo
and other parts of the state. The cost
of the trial runs up into the thousands,
beside the attorneys fees, which were
about $4,000. Both defense and state
were represented by the best talent OBJ
tainable. After the verdict was read
there seemed to be general rel oicing. The
defendant and his wife, who stood by him
through thick and thin, gave each of
the Jurors a hearty Misunderstanding, with
tears OF Joy in their eyes.
Mr.. BOYD, the defendant, has always
been considered very quiet and peace
able citizen, minding his own business;
while on the other hand, Sullivan was a
drinking man and when uuder the influence
of liquor was very. overbearing and danger
Gus, but very quiet when sober.

GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE stock market
was duller than on any previous day this
week, showing no animation throughout
the day except just at the opening and
close. notwithstanding the dullness,
however, there was a marked change in
the tone, and instead of the weakness
a steady though slow hardening of values
throughout the day, while few stocks
developed marked strength. There was
the usual attempt to depress values at
the opening upon the heaviness of the
London market, but from that time there
was no appearance of weakness. Fort
Worth and Denver made material ad-
vance, and toward the close Rock Island,
Milwaukee, Lake Shore aud Western pre-
ferred, all made squirt upward. The
opening was somewhat irregular,
though declines from last evenings
prices were in the majority. The changes
ranged from below to above. The first
prices were considerably the lowest of the
day, the marRet advancing throughout
from the opening. New England was
specially prominent in the first hour. The
market soon became extremely dull, when
Fort Worth and Denver assumed the lead.
There was no change until the last hour,
when little more animation was accom-
panied by increased strength, and
the market ruled quiet or strong at the
best figures of the day. With few IN
importance exceptions the entire active
list was higher this evening, aud MiIWau-
kee, Lake Shore and Western preferred,
and New England are up Il; Fort
Worth and .Denver up I8; Rock Is

Hooking coal per cent.
Railroad bonds were moderately active

lated into system, and to borrow
Spencer's own phrase, the com
mercial cannibalism" of our nine
teenth century philosophy. These
men standing on the mountain
tops of thought, and passing the
whole panorama of existence un-
der review, see that it is not
question Of our having chosen
steep and rugged, instead of a
smooth and level path-the pri-
vate instead of the public proper
ty in land road,-but that we have
deliberately turned our faces in
the wrong direction and have mis-
taken hell for heaven; that we
are travelling away from happi-
ness instead of toward it; that
while jostling one another in our
desire to proclaim our individual
ity we are crushing out of our
selves as well as out of others, the
very semblance of humanity.
They have but little use for the
appeal to the breeches pocket of
the Anti-Poverty Society, know
ing that the great physiological
mistake of the day is that the
breeches pocket is the seat of life.

A NEEDLESS DEFENSE.
Brave Words from a COmrade Who
Knows Haskell.

Editor Labor Enquirer.
Allow me to. say a few words
about our late editor, Burnette G..
Haskell.
He has been charged with being
an egotist, dishonest man and
God knows what the boodlers and
labor parasites have not called
him. This is his recommendation
to us, as praise from that source
for one of our leaders would mean
that he is traitor to us. The on
ly manner in which Comrade Has
kell has been dishonest is in cheat
ing himself and family by not be-
ing exacting enough in getting
and claiming that which was his
by right.
Some of the Doodle labor" men
have complained that he has SLAM
dered them. Well, if the reciting
of facts about these fellows is SLAM
der then, he is guilty. l, since his
coming among us, have watch
ed his action as a man and
as leader among his fellowmen,
and find that we can recommend
him when he leaves us to all who
love Truth and Justice, and COM
mend him as aman of untiring en-
ergy in Labor's Cause. l speak
as one thoroughly familiar with
the situation. E. o. CocHRANE.

AN ANALYSIS.
Confined nom tlrst paxe.l


chapters on Socialism" thought
likewise that it was too great an
advance to be gained at single
bound. Fawcett considers that
mankind will have made and un-
precedented advance, and similar
ly name after name could be cited
from the ranks of orthodox and
semi-orthodox economists all Of
whom admit our principles as
sound, though they doubt the pos
sibility of sudden change. Please
note here that all this school OF
writers has made speciality Of
being nothing if not individualistic.
But. when we come to the real in
dividualist, the men who have
dared to think for themselves and
who have refused to be bound by
the formula of any school, our
support grows more and more pro-
nounced. Carlyle specially label
ed the George measure, which was
then an unadopted literary waif,
as one of the innumerable quack
cure-alls and insisted that saliva
tion could only be attained by a
most painful divorce from our
present false system and an insist
ence on the adoption of mode
of life in consonance throughout
with the highest laws of humanity.
In the same vein Raskin; so Vic
tor Hugo, Wagner, Emerson and
almost every philosopher and
moralist Of note. Hugo accepts
the principle or the Commune,
something very different from
land tax legislation; Ruskin en-
phasizes and reiterates the truth
that "Co-operation is the law of
life; competition and anarchy
used in the sense of laisseSJaiyt
disorder,-the law of DEATH
Wagner considers our ideas as
"the adoption of a new faith, or to
speak more exactly, the realiza-
tion of a new knowledge" and in
passage which Mr.. George seems
lately to have studied, descants on
the extraordinary impetus that
will be given to individuality. En-
erson, following Carlyle, is never
weary of exposing the theft legis-

STAR OF BETHLEHEM.-Accordin to the
Scientific American the history of the So
called Star of Bethlehem is briefly this
Tycho Brahe, Danish astronomer, dis
covered, in the year 1872, an apparently
new star near Caph' in Cassiopea. When
first seen, in November, it had attained the
first magnitude. Itincreased rapidly in bril-
liancy, until it rivaled Venus, and was
visible at MONDAY. 1t began to diminish
in brightness in December, and continued
fade to away until the following May, when
disappeared from view.
Forty years later, the telescope revealed
small star close to where the wonderful
star was first seen. The star is still there
and is liable, say astronomers, to blaze
forth at any time. 1t is classed as a vari-
able star with period of 300 years. Ac.
cording to this theory, it was probably seen
about the christian era and is about due
again. Astronomers are watching for it and
if it should make its appearance, it would
make sensation. Such is brief history
of the Star of Bethlehem about which 90
much has been said.

A FRAzzLED-OUT FABRICATIoN.-Int the
Presidential campaign, and, we believe, in
every State campaign since, the Republic
can press of Virginia, and every crossroads
stumpsr of that political persuasion, per-
sistently rehearsed the falsehood about Mr..
Cleveland having favored mixed schools in
New York while Governor of that State.
The lie has been nailed to the counter time
and again, but the Republican campaigners
60 right on repeating it just as if they were
reciting an established fact instead of pro-
pagating an exploded invention. II was
evidently their intention to make the same
old frazzled-out yarn do service in the
pending campaign, and for all we can tell
they may still adhere to their purpose; but
their little scheme has had the breath
knocked out of it by G.. A. Sullivan, editor
of the Montgomery Democrat, who recently
wrote to President Cleveland inquiring in
regard to the truth of a report that he,
while Governor of New York, approved
btlf authorizing mixed schools in that
State. In replying to Mr.. Sullivan's in
quiry, President Cleveland writes: ''The
only bill that know of being passed and
approved on that subject, while I was
Governor, was one affecting the city of
New York, and had precisely the contrary
efect-that is, the purpose and object was
to retain the colOred schools separate and
distinct from those for the whites. Mr..
Nelson J.. Waterbury, of New York City, l
think, drew the bill, and Prof. Rasin,
superintendent of colored schools, and Rev.
Mr.. Derrick, both of New York City. ad-
vocated it strongly. The school board of
New York City had determined to consoli-
date their schools with the white schools.
and the bill took it out of the control of the
board, so that it should not be done. 1t
was strongly urged before me that separate
schools were of much more benefit to the
colored people than mixed schools. ap-
proved the bill, and I suppose in the city
of New York colored schools are separately
maintained to day by virtue of its provi-
sions.. have thus given you all remem-
Der on the subject of your inquiry. I have
been much surprised at hearing before the
receipt of your letter that this matter has
been SO grossly misrepresented." "-Lynch-
